Four days later.

The land of the southern demon.

It is still several miles away from Qinglian Mountain.

In a mountain forest.

"Fuck Zhao Yi, run faster!"

"My butt has been bitten, how can I run fast? Hurry up and give me a hand!"

"The monster is catching up again!"

A group of flying winged tigers were chasing three ragged monks.

The three men, with disheveled hair and dirty bodies, fled from the forest in a miserable state.

It seemed that they had entered the range of Qinglian Mountain, and the group of flying-winged tigers behind them finally stopped catching up.

The three of them lay on the ground, gasping for breath and still feeling terrified.

"Why are the monsters in the Southern Demon Land so ferocious?"

They set out from Yunling Town four days ago and rushed to Qinglian Mountain. With a feeling of trepidation and excitement, they wanted to ask Xia Qinglian in person whether she was the goddess.

The three of them had great ambitions when they set out, but they didn't expect that the journey would be so extremely difficult.

Just a few hundred miles away from Yunling Town, they were attacked by a treasure hunting team, who stole their money.

So the three of them could only rely on Sun San's skills as a spirit beast master along the way to catch low-level monsters to eat and replenish their spiritual power.

After finally arriving at Qiu Shui Town on the border of Dong Xiu, they encountered a group of remnants of the He Huan Sect who attempted to rape a female cultivator. The three men stepped in to help them and were beaten half to death.

They finally rescued the female cultivator, but it turned out to be a scam. All the talismans and elixirs of the three people were stolen by the female cultivator overnight.

The three could only continue their journey southwards and entered the familiar land of the Southern Demon. They did not expect that the Southern Demon beasts were now rampant, and the weakest were the third-grade ghost wolves.

As a result, the three of them were chased by different monsters along the way, and they survived countless near-death experiences. They finally arrived at Qinglian Mountain today in a hurry.

“Woo woo woo, this is too difficult!”

"Goddess, are you Xia Qinglian? Woo woo woo"

"Don't cry, I want to cry too, woo woo woo."

The three men were exhausted and lay on the ground crying. A burst of dense footsteps were heard nearby, and a group of monks were seen running forward in a hurry, talking as they ran.

"Hurry up, hurry up, the founding ceremony of Qinglian Mountain is about to begin!"

"I heard that the Tianyun Sect and Chiyun Mountain have already started fighting in front of us for a front position."

"Fuck, these Saint Xia's lickers! Leave me a seat!"

"Don't rush to lick it. Zhenyang Sect has unified the three major sects and its momentum is even greater. If the two sides go to war, we can't stand on the wrong side."

"Yes, although Xia Qinglian is powerful, the spiritual energy in Qinglian Mountain is scarce and is far less abundant than that in Zhenyang Mountain. This is a disadvantage due to the innate geographical advantage!"

"Back then, Qinglian Sect still had Nalan Yan, but they still lost because Qinglian Mountain lacked spiritual energy and the other disciples were unable to grow."

"Let's not talk about it for now. Let's wait and see after today. Damn, there are so many people ahead!"

This group of monks quickly ran away. Zhao Yi, Qian Er, and Sun San struggled to get up from the ground, looked forward, and were suddenly stunned.

In the distance is a majestic and beautiful mountain. Below the mountain, you can vaguely see a large group of black heads. At a glance, there are tens of thousands of them.

With such a large formation, I’m afraid half of the cultivators from Hongzhou Continent have come.

"Fuck, how do we squeeze in?"

Zhao Yi and Qian Er looked at each other and were stunned.

A ball of boiling spiritual power suddenly ignited beside them. The two looked at Sun San in shock, only to see that Sun San's whole body was shining with light.

"Fuck, Sun San, you actually built your foundation?"

Sun San looked towards the towering mountains in the distance, with fanaticism in his eyes:

"I must ask Saint Xia in person whether she is the goddess or not. No one can stop me!"

After saying that, Sun San rushed forward!

"Sun San, we're with you!"

"And me, ahhhh! Go!"

…

Qinglian Mountain.

The originally quiet and desolate foot of the mountain is now crowded with people.

Countless monks were still pushing forward, trying to get to the front.

At this moment, at the location closest to the gate of Qinglian Mountain, the Tianyun Sect and the Chiyun Mountain were confronting each other.

Xu Kongming pointed at Yue Li and said coldly: "Little Du'er Yue, you were so disrespectful to Qinglian Sect back then. You still have the audacity to come here today. Aren't you afraid that the Saint Lady will punish you?!"

Yue Li was shrouded in black mist, but he said, "Old Xu, you are the one who is shameless. You attacked the Saint Lady but was beaten to your knees and begged for mercy. Now you are fighting with me for the position. Even if you get it, will you lick it?"

"Fuck, you are worthy of being a demon sect, speaking so bluntly?"

The monks around were all stunned. Many of them were from the Eastern Cultivation Sect and still had some reserve of righteous monks.

Although I am here to lick you today, I still have to keep my dignity and not show it so obviously.

Seeing how shameless Tianyun Sect and Chiyun Mountain were at this moment, he was suddenly amazed.

But these people are not fools. They came to watch the ceremony today to give face to Xia Qinglian and don't want to be hated by her.

But it doesn't mean that they will definitely stand on the side of Qinglian Sect. Now the most powerful sect in the world is undoubtedly the Zhenyang Sect which has unified the three major sects.

On the other hand, the Qinglian Sect relied on Xia Qinglian's three hundred thousand-mile flying arrows to intimidate the four regions, and its momentum was comparable to that of the Zhenyang Sect.

But in terms of long-term development, Zhenyang Mountain has abundant spiritual power, while Qinglian Mountain is located in the barren southern demon land, where spiritual power is particularly scarce.

In a few years, Zhenyang Sect will surely produce many talented people, but Qinglian Sect will follow the same old path.

There are only a few top fighters, but the overall strength of other disciples is far inferior to that of Zhenyang Sect.

Therefore, most people who came here today took a wait-and-see attitude.

Anyway, don't offend Xia Qinglian for now, let's see how the situation develops.

If that doesn't work, then continue to remain neutral.

Someone from Dongxiu was whispering:

"Have you heard? The spiritual energy of Feiyun Mountain and Leijian Mountain disappeared in the past two days!"

"I came from Thunder Sword City, so of course I know. It is said that the ancestor of Thunder Sword Sect appeared and blamed Su Longxiang for destroying Thunder Sword Sect and cutting off the immortal vein of Thunder Sword Mountain."

"What about Feiyun Mountain? Could it be that the ancestor of Feiyun Sect also cut off the immortal vein in anger?"

"But no matter what, it's impossible for the spiritual energy of the entire mountain to disappear overnight, right?"

At this time, a ray of light appeared on Qinglian Mountain.

Everyone stopped talking and arguing, the dark crowd suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked up at the top of the mountain.

A tall figure wearing a red cloud-patterned crepe robe slowly stepped out from the top of the mountain and walked in the air.

Her long hair was tied into a bun with a blue hairpin inserted on the top, which added a touch of elegance and dignity to her coldness.

That gorgeous oval face had a calm expression as she walked in the clouds, like the Lady of the Nine Heavens.

Everyone looked up, with admiration and amazement in their eyes.

To the west, a golden carriage appeared. The Western Emperor Wu Heng stood up and saluted to the woman in the clouds.

"Meet Saint Lady Xia!"

It was quiet all around.

Even the Western Emperor has come, and you are still so respectful?

"Meet the Saint Lady!"

Xu Kongming reacted the fastest and was the first to kneel down.

"Meet the Saint Lady!"

Yue Li, who was standing next to him, was shocked and immediately knelt down.

With the two of them taking the lead, all the large and small sects in the surrounding Southern Demon Land also knelt down.

Although the cultivators from the Northern Wilderness and the Eastern Cultivation did not kneel down, they all saluted.

"Meet the Saint Lady!"

"Meet the Saint Lady!"
